    A) Rs. 1000, Rs. 1250

    B)  Rs. 2000, Rs. 2500

    C)  Rs. 4000, Rs. 5000

    D)  Rs. 3000, Rs. 3750

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Monthly incomes of two persons is 4x and 5x. Given,\[\frac{4x-500}{5x-500}=\frac{7}{9}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[36x-4500=35x-3500\] \[x=1000\] Hence, income = Rs. 4000 and Rs. 5000
